Guaranteed genuine 100% natural lazasine not treated in any way... Exclusively made for us... Not seen anywhere else! This exotic material comes from a small private mine in Tibet. The mine is located at an elevation of 4,000 m, in a frigid area with thin air. There is no more mining, making this stone highly sought after. Lazasine is a gem-quality feldspar derived from volcano sediments related to Jurassic-Cretaceous volcanic rocks. This copper-bearing feldspar (andesine) is prized for its color and rarity. Orange-red to red is the typical color but green material is occasionally found. This red andesine is also called "Tibetan sunstone" and "Tibetan red labradorite", and endowed with spiritual power.
